Oh Deary Me;



'Operator Training Manual for the TLC Helilift'

Section 2 - Safety and Regulations

2.2 Intended Use

Carriage of Persons

The Helilift is not designed for the carriage of persons. The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) for equipment designed for the carriage of persons differs from those of equipment designed for carriage of goods. The helicopter must therefore be vacated before it is attached to the TLC Helilift, and people must not ride or stand on the TLC Helilift.

2.4 Operation

When trailing the helicopter, walking straight ahead and facing the direction of travel, have one hand on the handle.

4 Controls and Safety Devices

4.1.2 Cabinet Safety Devices

Audible Alarm (11)
This audible safety device is a warning to others that the TLC Helilift is active.
Depending on the type fitted, it will sound automatically and continuously:
With ignition ON, or
When handle pulled down, or
When either forward or reverse is engaged
